Bill Nye The Science Guy...

So i was watching this show today and it was the episode on Newtons Laws of Motion. And at the very last scene he is dressed up as a crash test dummy at a racetrack and gets into a White Eagle Talon TSI. It was funny.
That is all.

Re: Bill Nye The Science Guy...

I liked watching the show, off to youtube to see if its on there. I wonder if it had an idle issue, ground going into 1st or 2nd, buffed blue or white smoke, stalled from a vented bov, or hit fuel cut while driving?

My 1 year old son was captivated by that show. (The key to good parenting is keeping your son or daughter distracted.)

... umm. im not sure what your statement is trying to say here. but the moon does reflect light from the sun. He was booed by people in Waco Texas who thought the moon generated its own light. When will people learn that THERE IS NO SCIENCE IN SCRIPTURE. The bible could have been written by Cave People and had about as much facts in it.

Re: Bill Nye The Science Guy...

I lost all respect for the man when he spoke at saint cloud state to a small audience ( I was there)

in the context of automotive technology, and this is paraphraising "our automotive engineers are very smart and they have been working to make our engines today be extremely efficient"

Which is a HUGE lie, so now i cant stand him.

I want a CRX HF ~50 MPG

Umm... Are you saying that out automotive engineers are making engines less efficient. If an newer SUV that gets 20 MPG weighed as much as a CRX it would likely get 50 mpg because it would have to work less to push the weight. You cannot say that we havent made leaps from the days of the Pinto and other gas hoggers.
